Default Murrini

Does anyone know where I can get really cute murrini. Not looking for animals or cutesy ones...just hearts or stars, etc. .... basically really nice ones. I have ordered from different sources only to be disappointed.
thanks,
jamie

I'm not sure what you mean about mixing COEs...
In a bead, no -- it will not be compatible.
Lori and Kim's murrini definitely come in little baggies labeled with the COE, so there wouldn't be confusion if you ordered more than 1 COE at a time.

Delphi glass has some what of a basic selection of 90 and 96 murine, not exactly what you're asking for as in cute, but they are easy designs to play with.

What COE might you be seeking? And I'm with David on the "mixing" COE's - definitely a recipe for disaster!

I think you can get away with putting a 96 COE on 104 COE, but definitely not 90COE. Most frits are made with 96 COE and it's usually fine on 104 COE glass. That being said, I would make test leads, just to make sure.

Since murrini is a solid chip using one of a different coe into your bead will not work. You can get away with frit since it is small bits dispersed around the entire bead, not one big chunk like murrini. If you aren't able to find what you want let me know colors, shapes and sizes and I'll be happy to make some up in 104 for you. I really don't do the abstract/stripey ones though so Lori and Kim would be your best bet for that.
